Dropping 44.75% to number 10, Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e: 2-nensei-hen‘s Volume 4 is just 6,152 copies away from the 100,000 copies mark, which is achievable, but with its current trend, we may not be seeing it making the Top 10 chart the following week.

  1. Otonari no Tenshi-sama sales in two weeks
    Volume 1 – 12,418
    Volume 2 – 16,695
    Volume 3 – 22,212
    Volume 4 – 23,889

      1. Yes, it seems that it is becoming more and more popular. And I’m interested in the job since the first time I saw it I hope one day I can read

      2. If it gets popular, I think the time for you to be able to read it will come very soon! There doesn’t seem to be a Manga adaptation though 🤔
